It's Christmas Time All Summer Long at Santa's Village

When we were younger, one of my best friends liked to throw a party every summer. It was Christmas in July. We decorated and sang carols, and the whole works. Who doesn't love Christmas?! Well, if you'd like to celebrate a little bit of the Christmas spirit this July, or August, or into the first week of September, you can do just that with a trip to Santa's Village, in Bracebridge, ON.

This is Santa's little summer home, located half-way between the North Pole and the Equator, and has been a favourite Muskoka family destination for the past 58 years. With rides, a splash pad, mini-golf, laser tag, and more, Santa's Village has something for kids of all ages. There's even a bungee trampoline that was added to Sportsland this year. And did you know it has a campground as well? Santa’s Whispering Pines Campground was voted best campground in Muskoka for the past two years, after being expanded and revitalized in 2010. It now includes 11 rustic cabins, 2 yurts, and 50 new campsites, so there are many options for different family camping styles.

Santa’s Village is open daily June 15-September 2 and September 7-8, plus December 21-23 and 28. Hours sometimes vary. Please visit www.santasvillage.ca for more information. While you're at the park, be sure to stop by Santa's summer house, have a chat and take some photos with him and Mrs. Claus.
